Portal 2 Review

To start off with Portal 2 is a muticonsole game which I've played on both PC and Xbox 360 and I would say that its most definitely better on the PC. This is basically due to the slightly better graphics you can have and you can tune the controls to where your comfortable with them, and as we all know a game where the controls are not where you want will always lead to poor game play. This game seems to have paid a great attention to detail, in a lot of games you have to make a journey but don't remember the trip at all, but with Portal 2 you get a memorable trip and a great connecting of levels. Now some of the load times aren't that good and the load screen is rather boring but its loading rather complex levels, not even talking about the graphics it has to load. Anyway I think that this is a very good sequel to the original portal which is a hard game to follow, but portal 2 took it all in stride. Now I am not really going to go into detail as to do that you have to give the game away. But I will say that the storyline gives you lots of options as to what to do, and it has a multilayer mode which is one of the best Ive played in a long while. And G.L.A.D.O.S. is still awesome and evil.

I haven't had the chance to get my hands on Portal (1 or 2 yet), but I can agree with you comments about PC play. On Sims 2 the game is played much better on the PC. I think the graphics do play a big part in that, but you definitely need good controls over anything else.
